The space ln'tween the houses makes just the protected 

 place needi'd f<tr the frames. 



For a layout of its size, we douht If there Is one having 

 as many things both hlg and little. In Its favor.

 merits. 



It suridy does combine nil the essential nilvantai;es of 

 the curved eave house, the curvilinear house, and the 

 stralKht roof one with gutter and cuntlnuous side ven- 

 tilation. 



Of course. If you prefer the Standard Curved Envc, with 

 Its undeniable attractiveness, then we will gladly build 

 your house that way. But why go backwards? Why 

 iiot have the very last Improvements? 

 You know we go anywhere for business. Or to talk 

 business.

THIS TELLS OUR STORY 



standard Thermometer Company. Boston, Massachusetts. 



Gentlemen: — Enclosed please find check for ten ($10,00) dollars 

 for which please send us at once, one ten dollar thermostat with 

 lock and key. 



We put up two of your thermostats in November and thanks to 

 them for working last night. Our night fireman, who has worked 

 for us on the same job tor five years, went to sleep and the bell rang 

 about three o'clock. The houses were down to thlrty-flve before we 

 got steam into them. If they had frozen up, we would have lost 

 about thirty-five thousand ($3.">,000) dollars. Another year we hope 

 to have a thermostat In every one of our fourteen houses. 



Detroit, Mich. Respectfully, BEARD BROTHERS.
